Enjoy Long-Lasting Skin Renewal With Radiesse in St. Louis

Collagen is a naturally occurring protein that helps to keep our skin firm, healthy, and youthful. As we get older, though, our bodies gradually produce less collagen, which can contribute to skin laxity, wrinkles, and other signs of aging. At the Renaissance Plastic Surgery Medical Spa, our skilled aesthetic professionals offer Radiesse, an innovative injectable treatment that can stimulate increased collagen production to rejuvenate your skin with long-lasting results.

What Is Radiesse?

Radiesse is an injectable volumizing filler that helps rebuild the foundation of your facial structure. This unique cosmetic treatment consists of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres in the form of a gel, which is injected into the facial skin to promote skin renewal and reduce signs of aging.

Radiesse works by stimulating increased collagen production. This allows the filler to gradually improve the overall health, texture, and appearance of your skin. After Radiesse treatment at our medspa, your skin will be firmer and smoother with fewer fine lines and wrinkles. Radiesse is most commonly used to target nasolabial folds, but it can also be effective for skin rejuvenation around the chin, cheeks, and temples.

Benefits of Radiesse

If you’re looking to revitalize your facial skin, Radiesse can offer all of the following advantages:

  • Increased collagen production
  • Reduced skin laxity
  • Firmer, smoother facial skin
  • Reduced fine lines and wrinkles
  • Improved facial contours
  • Natural-looking, long-lasting results
  • No recovery time
  • Quick, simple procedure
  • Increased self-confidence

What to Expect During Your Radiesse Treatment in St. Louis

At our medical spa, you can expect a relatively simple, stress-free process for your Radiesse treatment. First, you’ll sit down for a private consultation with one of our aestheticians, who will evaluate your aesthetic goals and unique circumstances. They’ll ensure that Radiesse treatment is right for you and answer any questions you may have.

When the procedure begins, your provider will apply a topical numbing cream to your skin in the targeted area, which will minimize your discomfort during the treatment. 

One of our experienced nurse injectors will then inject Radiesse solution below the layers of your skin using a very fine needle, after which the location site may be gently massaged in order to maximize the corrective effect.

After the injections are finished, you should have no problem returning to work or heading home immediately.

Is Any Recovery Time Required After Radiesse Treatment?

Following your Radiesse treatment, it’s possible that you’ll experience mild swelling, bruising, or itching in the area of the injection sites. We recommend icing the treated area and keeping it elevated; any adverse effects should dissipate in short order. That said, most patients can resume their normal routines right away after Radiesse treatment. To ensure proper healing, though, you’ll want to wait at least 24 hours to engage in strenuous physical activity or drink alcohol. It’s also best to avoid direct sun exposure for a day or two after your treatment.

Are You a Good Candidate for Radiesse Treatment?

If you’re an adult who would like to achieve a smoother, more youthful complexion and reduce facial folds and creases, you could be a good candidate for Radiesse. Radiesse can be an excellent option if you’re dealing with loose, sagging skin, nasolabial folds, and other signs of aging skin. This filler is also a great choice if you prefer a treatment with exceptionally long-lasting results.

Ideal candidates for Radiesse should also meet the following requirements:

  • Not be currently pregnant or nursing
  • Be in generally good physical health
  • Have no allergies to any Radiesse ingredients
  • Have realistic expectations
  • Have no active skin infections near the treatment area
